Payment demanded for stored electricity? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

charge

This clue is a double definition.

'payment demanded' is the first definition.
(charge for a service)

'stored electricity?' is the second definition.
(as in charge in a battery)

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for charge that I've seen before include "Demand price; accuse" , "Control" , "Load - price" , "person in custody" , "Impose fee on" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
